PART I65

Item 1. Description of Business

(a)   Business History and Background

We were formed as a “blank check” Delaware corporation under the name Wentworth III, Inc. on March 7, 2001 to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with an operating business which we believe had significant growth potential. As of February 12, 2003, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement with Whitco Company, L.L.P., a Texas limited liability partnership which manufactured, marketed and distributed outdoor lighting poles. On August 27, 2003, we acquired Whitco Company, LP (successor in interest as a result of the conversion of Whitco Company, L.L.P. to a limited partnership) through an exchange of all of Whitco's partnership units, and options to purchase partnership units, for 2,991,368 shares of Catalyst common stock, and options to purchase 808,632 shares of Catalyst common stock. Following our acquisition of Whitco, we changed our name to Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc., and Whitco became our wholly-owned subsidiary.

Whitco was a nationwide manufacturer, marketer and distributor of steel and aluminum outdoor lighting poles. Founded in 1969, Whitco sold poles directly to original equipment manufacturers (OEM's) and indirectly to other third parties through its own contracted sales representatives. We sought to have Whitco become the preferred manufacturer, marketer and distributor of steel and aluminum lighting pole structures and accessories.

We operated our Whitco business solely through our wholly-owned Whitco subsidiary. As such, substantially all of our assets and liabilities resided in our Whitco subsidiary. We continued to incur operating losses from our Whitco business and had insufficient working capital to fund our Whitco business operations. During late 2005, we pursued the alternative of selling or merging with another company to provide manufacturing economies of scale and the potential of additional liquidity to fund operations.
 
However, due to continuing operating losses, on March 15, 2006, Whitco voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. On April 25, 2006, the bankruptcy court approved a sale of Whitco’s assets (other than cash and accounts receivable) used in its area lighting pole business. The assets were sold free and clear of any liens and encumbrances to a third party purchaser pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S Bankruptcy Code. The purchaser issued a common stock purchase warrant (“Purchase Warrant”) to acquire shares of the purchaser’s common stock as consideration for the assets purchased.
 
On May 16, 2006, Whitco filed a motion to convert its bankruptcy case to a Chapter 7 liquidation proceeding. This motion was granted by the bankruptcy court on July 13, 2006. In connection with the liquidation, the Purchase Warrant and Whitco’s cash and accounts receivable were assigned and distributed to Whitco’s secured creditor, Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”). As part of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings, no assets were available for distribution to unsecured creditors and, accordingly, these unsatisfied obligations were relieved as part of the liquidation of Whitco in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 7 of U.S. bankruptcy laws.
 
Since Whitco’s liquidation in bankruptcy, the Company has had nominal assets, nominal business operations and its business strategy has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. In furtherance of this business strategy, on July 25, 2006, Catalyst voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. Catalyst subsequently determined to withdraw from bankruptcy court protection and, on motion made by the U.S. trustee, the bankruptcy court ordered the case dismissed on January 9, 2007.

(b)   Reorganization
 
Since the dismissal of Catalyst’s bankruptcy case, the Company completed a reorganization in September 2007 and settled all of its outstanding liabilities with creditors outside the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy courts (the “Reorganization”). As part of this Reorganization, on August 22, 2007, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“Securities Purchase Agreement”) with KIG Investors I, LLC (“KIG Investors”), a Delaware limited liability company, pursuant to which KIG Investors purchased 1,572,770 shares of convertible preferred stock for a purchase price of $157,277, or $0.10 per share (“Preferred Stock Purchase”). A copy of the Securities Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3.
 
On August 23, 2007, in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the existing officers and two of the Company’s directors resigned, and Kevin R. Keating, the sole remaining director, was appointed Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company.
 
Kevin R. Keating is the father of Timothy J. Keating, the principal member of Keating Investments, LLC. Keating Investments, LLC is the managing member of KIG Investors. Timothy J. Keating is the manager of KIG Investors.
 
The Preferred Stock Purchase was completed on September 12, 2007. The preferred shares were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split was completed on September 25, 2007, and KIG Investors was issued 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, upon cancellation of the preferred stock. The proceeds of the Preferred Stock Purchase were used to pay outstanding liabilities of the Company.
 
KIG Investors was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock issued to them upon conversion, pursuant to the terms and condition of a certain registration rights agreement (“KIG Registration Rights Agreement”). A copy of the KIG Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4.
 
In connection with the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the Company entered into agreements with a number of creditors for a cash settlement of amounts owed to them by the Company. Pursuant to these cash settlements, the Company paid an aggregate of $30,277 in complete satisfaction of $191,092 in accrued liabilities, resulting in income from the discharge of indebtedness of $160,815.
 
In connection with the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the Company also entered into settlement and release agreements (collectively, the “Settlement Agreements”) with Feldman Weinstein & Smith, LLP (“FWS”), former legal counsel to the Company, and with Halliburton Investor Relations (“HIR”), the Company’s former investor relation firm, for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to them for services rendered. Pursuant to these Settlement Agreements, the Company issued an aggregate of 71,086 shares of common stock, on a post-split basis, valued at $7,109 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of accrued liabilities totaling $73,260, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $66,151 being recorded. A copy of the Settlement Agreements with FWS and HIR are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.5 and 10.6, respectively. FWS and HIR were granted certain piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock received by them in the settlement.
 
In connection with the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the Company also entered into settlement and release agreement with Laurus (“Laurus Settlement Agreement”) for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to it for certain loans and accrued interest. Pursuant to the Laurus Settlement Agreement, the Company issued 1,083,172 shares of common stock, on a post-split basis, valued at $108,317 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of principal under notes of $820,024 and accrued interest of $121,095, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $832,802 being recorded. A copy of the Laurus Settlement Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.8.

2


Laurus was granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights for the shares of common stock issued to them under the settlement, pursuant to the terms and condition of a certain registration rights agreement (“Laurus Registration Rights Agreement”). A copy of the Laurus Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.9.
 
Further, as part of the foregoing cash and equity settlements, any creditor holding warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock agreed to the cancellation of such warrants. Accordingly, warrants to purchase 82,367 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, were cancelled.
 
  (c) Current Business of Issuer

Since completion of its Reorganization, the Company’s business strategy has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target operating company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with an operating business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

To date, the Company has made no efforts to identify a possible business combination. As a result, the Company has not conducted negotiations or entered into a letter of intent concerning any target business. The Company intends to commence search for an operating business suitable for a business combination after this Registration Statement becomes effective and the Company is a reporting company under the Exchange Act.

Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company qualifies as a “shell company,” because it has no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. The Company intends to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as it is subject to those requirements.

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of Kevin R. Keating, the sole officer and director of the Company. As of this date, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with any party, nor have there been any specific discussions with any potential business combination candidate regarding business opportunities for the Company. The Company has unrestricted flexibility in seeking, analyzing and participating in potential business opportunities. In its efforts to analyze potential acquisition targets, the Company will consider the following kinds of factors:

(i)   Potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated market expansion or new products;

(ii)   Competitive position as compared to other firms of similar size and experience within the industry segment as well as within the industry as a whole;

(iii)   Strength and diversity of management, either in place or scheduled for recruitment;

(iv)   Capital requirements and anticipated availability of required funds, to be provided by the Company or from operations, through the sale of additional securities, through joint ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources;

(v)   The cost of participation by the Company as compared to the perceived tangible and intangible values and potentials;

3


(vi)   The extent to which the business opportunity can be advanced;

(vii)   The accessibility of required management expertise, personnel, raw materials, services, professional assistance and other required items; and

(viii)   Other relevant factors.

In applying the foregoing criteria, no one of which will be controlling, management will attempt to analyze all factors and circumstances and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and available data. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries, and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Due to the Company's limited capital available for investigation, the Company may not discover or adequately evaluate adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.

(d)   Form of Potential Business Combination

The manner in which the Company participates in an opportunity will depend upon the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of the Company and the promoters of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of the Company and such promoters.

It is likely that the Company will acquire its participation in a business opportunity through the issuance of common stock or other securities of the Company. Although the terms of any such transaction cannot be predicted, it should be noted that in certain circumstances the criteria for determining whether or not an acquisition is a so-called "tax free" reorganization under Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") depends upon whether the owners of the acquired business own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. If a transaction were structured to take advantage of these provisions rather than other "tax free" provisions provided under the Code, all prior stockholders of the Company would in such circumstances retain 20% or less of the total issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. Under other circumstances, depending upon the relative negotiating strength of the parties, prior stockholders of the Company may retain substantially less than 20% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. This could result in substantial additional dilution to the equity of those who were stockholders of the Company prior to a business combination with an operating entity.

The present stockholders of the Company will likely not have control of a majority of the voting securities of the Company following a reorganization transaction. As part of such a transaction, the Company's sole director may resign and one or more new directors may be appointed without any vote by stockholders.

In the case of a business combination, the transaction may be accomplished upon the sole determination of management without any vote or approval by stockholders. In the case of a statutory merger or consolidation directly involving the Company, it will likely be necessary to call a stockholders' meeting and obtain the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding securities. The necessity to obtain such stockholder approval may result in delay and additional expense in the consummation of any proposed transaction and will also give rise to certain appraisal rights to dissenting stockholders. Most likely, management will seek to structure any such transaction so as not to require stockholder approval.

It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial cost for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, the costs theretofore incurred in the related investigation might not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in the loss to the Company of the related costs incurred.

4


We presently have no employees. Our sole officer and director is engaged in outside business activities and anticipates that he will devote to our business very limited time until the acquisition of a successful business opportunity has been identified. We expect no significant changes in the number of our employees other than such changes, if any, incident to a business combination.

(e) Reports to Security Holders

(i)   The Company is not required to deliver an annual report to security holders and at this time does not anticipate the distribution of such a report.

(ii)   The Company will file reports with the SEC. The Company will be a reporting company and will comply with the requirements of the Exchange Act.

(iii)   The public may read and copy any materials the Company files with the SEC in the SEC's Public Reference Section, Room 1580, 100 F Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Section by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. Additionally, the SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC, which can be found at http://www.sec.gov.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations

(a) Reorganization  
 
The Company completed its reorganization in September 2007 and settled all of its outstanding liabilities with creditors outside the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy courts. As part of the Reorganization, on August 22, 2007, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with KIG Investors pursuant to which KIG Investors purchased 1,572,770 shares of convertible preferred stock for a purchase price of $157,277, or $0.10 per share.
 
The Preferred Stock Purchase was completed on September 12, 2007. The preferred shares were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”). The Reverse Split was completed on September 25, 2007, and KIG Investors was issued 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, upon cancellation of the preferred stock. The proceeds of the Preferred Stock Purchase were used to pay outstanding liabilities of the Company.
 
As part of the Reorganization, the Company entered into agreements with a number of creditors for a cash settlement of amounts owed to them by the Company. Pursuant to these cash settlements, the Company paid an aggregate of $30,277 in complete satisfaction of $191,092 in accrued liabilities, resulting in income from the discharge of indebtedness of $160,815.
 
As part of the Reorganization, the Company also entered into Settlement Agreements with FWS and HIR for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to them for services rendered. Pursuant to these Settlement Agreements, the Company issued an aggregate of 71,086 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $7,109 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of accrued liabilities totaling $73,260, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $66,151 being recorded.

5


As part of the Reorganization, the Company also entered into a settlement agreement with Laurus, the Company’s secured creditor, for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to it for certain loans and accrued interest. Pursuant to the Laurus Settlement Agreement, the Company issued 1,083,172 shares of common stock, on a post-split basis, to Laurus valued at $108,317 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of principal under notes of $820,024 and accrued interest of $121,095, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $832,802 being recorded.
 
(b) Results of Operation

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2006 and 2007, the Company had no revenues from continuing operations.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2007, the Company had a loss from operations of $(118,450), as compared with a loss from operations of $(381,602) for the twelve months ended September 30, 2006.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2007, the Company incurred interest expense of $79,678, as compared with interest expense of $246,607 for the twelve months ended September 30, 2006. The reduction in interest expense was primarily attributed to payments made on certain notes issued to Laurus during the twelve months ended September 30, 2006 in connection with the Whitco bankruptcy and liquidation.

The Company had net earnings from discontinued operations of $66,304 during the twelve months ended September 30, 2006. The net earnings from discontinued operations were comprised of a loss from discontinued operations (net of tax) of $(2,149,123), which was offset by a gain of $2,215,427 on the disposition of the Whitco subsidiary.

The Company also had income on discharge of indebtedness of $1,059,768 during the twelve months ended September 30, 2006. This discharge income was related to the settlements made with various creditors of the Company including, Laurus, FWS and HIR.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2007, the Company had net income of $861,640, primarily related to discharge income of $1,059,768 for the period, as compared with a net loss of $(561,905) for the twelve months ended September 30, 2006.

(c) Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2007, the Company had assets equal to $76,696, comprised exclusively of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s current liabilities as of September 30, 2007 were $8,363, comprised exclusively of accrued expenses.
 
The following is a summary of the Company’s cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities for the twelve months ended September, 2007 and 2006:

The Company currently has nominal assets, no active business operations and no sources of revenues. The Company is dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations and to execute its business plan of seeking a combination with a private operating company. In addition, the Company is dependent upon certain related parties to provide continued funding and capital resources. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations. Our financial statements indicate that without additional capital, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.  

(d) Plan of Operations  
 
Since the Company completed its Reorganization in September 2007, its business strategy and plan of operation has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target operating company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

The Company does not currently engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be paid with money in our treasury or with additional amounts, as necessary, to be loaned to or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors.

During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring costs related to the filing of Exchange Act reports, and consummating a business combination.

We believe we will be able to meet these costs through use of funds in our treasury and additional amounts to be loaned by or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors. Currently, however, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on our ability to find a suitable target operating company and enter into a possible business combination with such operating company. Management’s plan includes obtaining additional funds by equity financing prior to or in connection with a business combination and/or related party advances; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

The Company may consider a an operating business which has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital, but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control which may occur in a public offering.

Our sole officer and director has not had any preliminary contact or discussions with any representative of any other entity regarding a business combination with us. Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks.

7

 
Our management anticipates that it will likely be able to effect only one business combination, due primarily to our limited financing and the dilution of interest for present and prospective stockholders, which is likely to occur as a result of our management’s plan to offer a controlling interest to a target business in order to achieve a tax-free reorganization. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in us, because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.

The Company anticipates that the selection of a business combination will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking even the limited additional capital which we will have and/or the perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of becoming a publicly traded corporation include, among other things, facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be obtained, providing liquidity for the principals of and investors in a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, and offering greater flexibility in structuring acquisitions, joint ventures and the like through the issuance of stock. Potentially available business combinations may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

We do not currently intend to retain any entity to act as a "finder" to identify and analyze the merits of potential target businesses. However, at present, we contemplate that Keating Securities, LLC (“Keating Securities”), a Delaware limited liability company and a registered broker-dealer, may act as one of the finders of business combinations for the Company. Timothy J. Keating, the son of Kevin R. Keating, our sole officer and director, and a the manager of KIG Investors, our principal stockholder, is the Managing Member of, and holds approximately a 54% interest in, Keating Securities. There is currently no signed agreement or preliminary agreement or understanding between us and Keating Securities.

(e)   Going Concern  
 
We currently have no source of operating revenue, and have only limited working capital with which to pursue our business plan, which contemplates the completion of a business combination with an operating company. The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties. It may be necessary for us to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our auditor has issued a "going concern" qualification as part of his opinion in the Audit Report for the year ended September 30, 2007.
 
(f)   Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results may vary from these estimates and assumptions. We have identified in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Financial Statements contained in Part F/S of this document certain critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

(g)   Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Company is highly speculative in nature and involves an extremely high degree of risk. A prospective investor should consider the possibility of the loss of an investor’s entire investment and evaluate all information about us and the risk factors discussed below in relation to his financial circumstances before investing in us

There may be conflicts of interest between our management and the stockholders of the Company.

Conflicts of interest create the risk that management may have an incentive to act adversely to the interests of the stockholders of the Company.  A conflict of interest may arise between our management's personal pecuniary interest and its fiduciary duty to our stockholders. In addition, Kevin R. Keating, our sole officer and director, is currently involved with other public shell companies and conflicts in the pursuit of business combinations with such other public shell companies with which he is, and may in the future be, affiliated with may arise. If we and the other public shell companies that management is affiliated with desire to take advantage of the same opportunity, then members of management that are affiliated with both companies would abstain from voting upon the opportunity. In the event of identical officers and directors, members of management, such individuals will arbitrarily determine the company that will be entitled to proceed with the proposed transaction.

Additionally, we contemplate that at least one of the finders of business combinations for the Company will be Keating Securities. Timothy J. Keating, the manager of KIG Investors, our principal stockholder, and the son of Kevin R. Keating, our sole officer and director, is the Managing Member of, and holds approximately a 54% interest in, Keating Securities. We cannot assure you that conflicts of interest among us, Keating Securities and our stockholders will not develop.

We have no current operating business.

We currently have no relevant operating business, revenues from operations or assets. Our business plan is to seek a merger or business combination with an operating business. We may not realize any revenue unless and until we successfully combine with an operating business. We face all of the risks inherent in the investigation, acquisition, or involvement in a new business opportunity. An investor’s purchase of any of our securities must be regarded as placing funds at a high risk in a new or "start-up" venture with all of the unforeseen costs, expenses, problems, and difficulties to which such ventures are subject. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues, at least until the consummation of a business combination. This may result in our incurring a net operating loss that will increase continuously until we can consummate a business combination with a profitable business opportunity. We cannot assure you that we can identify a suitable business opportunity and consummate a business combination.

There is competition for those private companies suitable for a business combination of the type contemplated by management.

We are in a highly competitive market for a small number of business opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a successful business combination. We are and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the business of seeking business combinations with operating entities that desire to become public companies. A large number of established and well-financed entities, including small public companies and venture capital firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable target candidates for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we do; consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination. These competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and consummating a successful business combination.

Our future success is highly dependent on the ability of management to locate and attract a suitable acquisition.

The nature of our operations is highly speculative, and there is a consequent risk of loss of your investment. The success of our plan of operations will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the identified business opportunity. While management intends to seek business combination(s) with entities having established operating histories, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in locating candidates meeting that criterion. In the event we complete a business combination, the success of our operations may be dependent upon management of the successor firm or venture partner firm and numerous other factors beyond our control. In addition, even if we complete a business combination, there is no assurance that the business we acquire will generate revenues or profits, or that the value of our common stock will increase as a result of the acquired business opportunity.

We only intend to acquire a single business opportunity and thus your investment will lack diversification.

Because of our limited financial resources, it is unlikely that we will be able to diversify our acquisitions or operations. The inability to diversify our activities into more than one area will subject our investors and stockholders to economic fluctuations within a particular business or industry and therefore increase the risks associated with the investment. We only intend to engage in a business combination with one operating entity.

We have no existing agreement for a business combination or other transaction.

We have no arrangement, agreement or understanding with respect to engaging in a business combination with an operating business. No assurances can be given that we will successfully identify and evaluate suitable business opportunities or that we will conclude a business combination. Management has not identified any particular industry or specific business within an industry for evaluation. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a business combination on favorable terms, and there is consequently a risk that funds allocated to the purchase of our shares will not be invested in a company with active business operations. Further, management will seek to structure any such business combination so as not to require stockholder approval.

Management intends to devote only a limited amount of time to seeking a target company which may adversely impact our ability to identify a suitable acquisition candidate.
 
While seeking a business combination, management anticipates devoting very limited time to the Company's affairs. Our sole officer has not entered into a written employment agreement with us and is not expected to do so in the foreseeable future. This limited commitment may adversely impact our ability to identify and consummate a successful business combination. To supplement our search activities, we may be required to employ accountants, technical experts, appraisers, attorneys, or other consultants or advisors. Some of these outside advisors may be our affiliates or their affiliated entities. The selection of any such advisors will be made by our management without any input from stockholders, and the engagement of such persons may reduce the value of your investment.

The time and cost of preparing a private company to become a public reporting company may preclude us from entering into a merger or acquisition with the most attractive private companies.

Target companies that fail to comply with SEC reporting requirements may delay or preclude acquisition. Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act require reporting companies to provide certain information about significant acquisitions, including certified financial statements for the company acquired, covering one, two, or three years, depending on the relative size of the acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare these statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an acquisition. Otherwise suitable acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may be inappropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable. Further, the internal control management assessment and auditor attestation requirements under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 may limit the number of suitable acquisition prospects if they cannot, or are unwilling to, comply with these requirements.
 
10

 
The Company may be subject to further government regulation which would adversely affect our operations.

Although we will be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, management believes we will not be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), since we will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. If we engage in business combinations which result in our holding passive investment interests in a number of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. If so, we would be required to register as an investment company and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the SEC as to our status under the Investment Company Act and, consequently, violation of the Investment Company Act could subject us to material adverse consequences.

Any potential acquisition or merger with a foreign company may subject us to additional risks.

If we enter into a business combination with a foreign company, we will be subject to risks inherent in business operations outside of the United States. These risks include, for example, currency fluctuations, regulatory problems, punitive tariffs, unstable local tax policies, trade embargoes, risks related to shipment of raw materials and finished goods across national borders and cultural and language differences. Foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the United States economy in growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, market development, rate of savings, and capital investment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions, and in other respects.

Shares of our common stock are currently very thinly traded, and liquidity of shares of our common stock is limited.

Shares of our common stock will be very thinly traded, and the price if traded may not reflect the value of the Company. Moreover, we just completed a reverse split of the shares which may not reflect the value of the Company either. In connection with a future business combination, we may have to undertake a further reverse split of our shares. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares either now or after we complete the business combination. The market liquidity will be dependant on the perception of the operating business and any steps that its management might take to bring the company to the awareness of investors. There can be no assurance given that there will be any awareness generated. Consequently investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business. If a more active market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our securities, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the securities, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of such securities as collateral for any loans. Our shares of common stock are currently quoted over-the-counter on the Pink Sheets quotation system. Management intends to strongly consider undertaking a business transaction with a private operating company which will allow our shares to be quoted and traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”), NASDAQ Global Market, NASDAQ Capital Market or a national exchange. However, there can be no assurance that, upon a business combination, we will qualify our shares for quotation or listing on NASDAQ or a national exchange, or be able to maintain the criteria necessary to insure continued quotation or listing.

11

 
We also intend to seek to have our shares of common stock quoted on the OTC BB prior to completion of the business combination; however, there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain an OTC BB quotation prior to the business combination. In the event we are unable to obtain an OTC BB quotation prior to the business combination, the value of your investment may be reduced since certain attractive target operating businesses may only consider a combination with an OTC BB quoted company.

The majority of our shares currently outstanding are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 currently provides in essence that a person who has held restricted securities for a period of one year may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a company's outstanding common stock. There is no limit on the amount of restricted securities that may be sold by a non-affiliate after the restricted securities have been held by the owner for a period of two years. Current stockholders who own 10% or more of our shares will likely be deemed an affiliate until 90 days after a business combination is completed with a target company. After such 90-day period and assuming said shares have been held for more than two years, these stockholders may be able to sell their shares without volume restrictions. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Securities Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registrations of our shares, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares in any market that may develop. The SEC has proposed new rules that may shortened the one year holding period under Rule 144 to six months in certain circumstances. There is no assurance that these proposed rules will ultimately be adopted by the SEC in its current form or any other form.

The availability of the exemptions from registration provided by Rule 144 under or Section 4(1) of the Securities Act may be limited in accordance with the letter from Richard K. Wulff, Chief of the Office of Small Business Policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Corporation Finance, to Ken Worm of NASD Regulation, dated January 21, 2000 (the “Wulff Letter”). The Wulff Letter provides that certain private transfers of the shares of common stock also may be prohibited without registration under federal securities laws. The SEC has proposed codifying certain aspects of the Wulff Letter and adjusting some of its provisions. The proposed adjustments include allowing stockholders of a company that was formerly a shell company to be able to utilize the exemption from registration under Rule 144 under certain circumstances following such time as the company is no longer a shell company and certain disclosures have been completed. There is no assurance that this proposal will ultimately be adopted by the SEC in its current form or any other form.

Compliance with the criteria for securing exemptions under federal securities laws and the securities laws of the various states is extremely complex, especially in respect of those exemptions affording flexibility and the elimination of trading restrictions in respect of securities received in exempt transactions and subsequently disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or state securities laws.

There are issues impacting liquidity of our securities with respect to the SEC’s review of a future resale registration statement.

A majority of our shares of common stock currently outstanding are “restricted securities”, the holders thereof have certain registration rights. As such, following the business combination, we will likely file a resale registration statement on Form SB-2 or Form S-1, or some other available form, to register for resale such shares of common stock. In some cases, we are obligated to file a registration statement for certain restricted shares pursuant to certain registration rights agreements. We cannot control this future registration process in all respects as some matters are outside our control. Even if we are successful in causing the effectiveness of the resale registration statement, there can be no assurances that the occurrence of subsequent events may not preclude our ability to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement. Any of the foregoing items could have adverse effects on the liquidity of our shares of common stock. Further, a sale of our shares pursuant to an effective registration may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares in any market that may develop.

12

 
In addition, the SEC has recently disclosed that it has developed internal guidelines concerning the use of a resale registration statement to register the securities issued to certain investors in private investment in public equity (PIPE) transactions, where the issuer has a market capitalization of less than $75 million and, in general, does not qualify to file a registration statement on Form S-3 to register its securities. The SEC has taken the position that these smaller issuers may not be able to rely on Rule 415 under the Securities Act (“Rule 415”), which generally permits the offer and sale of securities on a continued or delayed basis over a period of time, but instead would require that the issuer offer and sell such securities in a direct or "primary" public offering, at a fixed price, if the facts and circumstances are such that the SEC believes the investors seeking to have their shares registered are underwriters and/or affiliates of the issuer. It appears that the SEC in most cases will permit a registration for resale of up to one third of the total number of shares of common stock then currently owned by persons who are not affiliates of such issuer and, in some cases, a larger percentage depending on the facts and circumstances. Staff members also have indicated that an issuer in most cases will have to wait until the later of six months after effectiveness of the first registration or such time as substantially all securities registered in the first registration are sold before filing a subsequent registration on behalf of the same investors. Since, following a reverse merger or business combination, we may have only a limited number of tradable shares of common stock, it is unclear as to how many, if any, shares of common stock the SEC will permit us to register for resale, but SEC staff members have indicated a willingness to consider a higher percentage in connection with registrations following reverse mergers with shell companies such as the Company. The SEC may require as a condition to the declaration of effectiveness of a resale registration statement that we reduce or “cut back” the number of shares of common stock to be registered in such registration statement. The result of the foregoing is that a stockholder’s liquidity in our common stock may be adversely affected in the event the SEC requires a cut back of the securities as a condition to allow the Company to rely on Rule 415 with respect to a resale registration statement, or, if the SEC requires us to file a primary registration statement.

We have never paid dividends on our common stock.

We have never paid dividends on our common stock and do not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that any funds available for payment of dividends will be re-invested into the Company to further its business strategy.

The Company may be subject to certain tax consequences in our business, which may increase our cost of doing business.

We may not be able to structure our acquisition to result in tax-free treatment for the companies or their stockholders, which could deter third parties from entering into certain business combinations with us or result in being taxed on consideration received in a transaction. Currently, a transaction may be structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies, as prescribed by various federal and state tax provisions. We intend to structure any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax consequences to both us and the target entity; however, we cannot guarantee that the business combination will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization could result in the imposition of both federal and state taxes that may have an adverse effect on both parties to the transaction.

13

 
The Company intends to issue more shares in a business combination, which will result in substantial dilution.

         Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of a maximum of 200,000,000 shares of common stock and a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Any business combination effected by us may result in the issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. Moreover, the common stock issued in any such business combination transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arm’s-length basis by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of common stock held by our then existing stockholders. Our Board of Directors has the power to issue any or all of such authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval. To the extent that additional shares of common stock or preferred stock are issued in connection with a business combination or otherwise, dilution to the interests of our stockholders will occur and the rights of the holders of common stock may be materially adversely affected.

Our principal stockholder may engage in a transaction to cause the Company to repurchase its shares of common stock.

In order to provide an interest in the Company to a third parties, our principal stockholder may choose to cause the Company to sell Company securities to one or more third parties, with the proceeds of such sale(s) being utilized by the Company to repurchase shares of common stock held by it. As a result of such transaction, our management, principal stockholder(s) and Board of Directors may change.

The Company has conducted no market research or identification of business opportunities, which may affect our ability to identify a business to merge with or acquire.
 
        The Company has not conducted market research concerning prospective business opportunities, nor have others made the results of such market research available to the Company. Therefore, we have no assurances that market demand exists for a merger or acquisition as contemplated by us. Our management has not identified any specific business combination or other transactions for formal evaluation by us, such that it may be expected that any such target business or transaction will present such a level of risk that conventional private or public offerings of securities or conventional bank financing will not be available. There is no assurance that we will be able to acquire a business opportunity on terms favorable to us. Decisions as to which business opportunity to participate in will be unilaterally made by our management, which may act without the consent, vote or approval of our stockholders.

Because we may seek to complete a business combination through a “reverse merger”, following such a transaction we may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.
 
Additional risks may exist since we will assist a privately held business to become public through a “reverse merger.” Securities analysts of major brokerage firms may not provide coverage of our Company since there is no incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock. No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to conduct any secondary offerings on behalf of our post-merger company in the future.
 
14

 
We cannot assure you that following a business combination with an operating business, our common stock will be listed on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange.
 
Following a business combination, we may seek the listing of our common stock on NASDAQ or the American Stock Exchange. However, we cannot assure you that following such a transaction, we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of either of those or any other stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain a listing of our common stock on either of those or any other stock exchange. After completing a business combination, until our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ or another stock exchange, we expect that our common stock would be eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation system, or on the “pink sheets,” where our stockholders may find it more difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, we would be subject to an SEC rule that, if it failed to meet the criteria set forth in such rule, imposes various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such rule may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital following a business combination.
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of preferred stock by our Board of Directors.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the common stock. In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of its authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.
 
Item 3. Description of Property

The Company neither rents nor owns any properties. The Company utilizes the office space and equipment of its sole officer and director at no cost. Management estimates such amounts to be immaterial. The Company currently has no policy with respect to investments or interests in real estate, real estate mortgages or securities of, or interests in, persons primarily engaged in real estate activities.

Item 4. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Company’s common stock beneficially owned on November 30, 2007, for (i) each shareholder the Company knows to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of its outstanding common stock, (ii) each of the Company’s executive officers and directors, and (iii) all executive officers and directors as a group. In general, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which the person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, all persons named have sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares, except as otherwise noted. At November 30, 2007, 4,331,131 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding.

None.
 
(c)   Family Relationships

Timothy J. Keating, who may be deemed a beneficial owner of shares of the Company’s common stock by virtue of his relationship with KIG Investors and Keating Investments, is the son of Kevin R. Keating, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director.

(d)   Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

There have been no events under any bankruptcy act, no criminal proceedings and no judgments, injunctions, orders or decrees material to the evaluation of the ability and integrity of any director, executive officer, promoter or control person of the Company during the past five years.

(e)   Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. The Company does not currently have an audit committee, however, for certain purposes of the rules and regulations of the SEC and in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 , the Company's board of directors is deemed to be its audit committee and as such fu nctions as an audit committee and performs some of the same functions as an audit committee including: (1) selection and oversight of the Company’s independent accountant; (2) establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal controls and auditing matters; and (3) engaging outside advisors. The Company 's board of directors has determined that its members do not include a person who is an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the SEC. The board of directors has determined that each of its members is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and has substantial business experience that results in that member's financial sophistication. Accordingly, the board of directors believes that each of its members have the sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations that an audit committee would have.

(f)   Code of Ethics

A code of ethics relates to written standards that are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
 
·       Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

·       Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that are filed with, or submitted to, the SEC and in other public communications made by an issuer;
 
·       Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
 
19

 
·       The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and
 
·       Accountability for adherence to the code.
 
Due to the limited scope of the Company’s current operations, the Company has not adopted a corporate code of ethics that applies to its executive officers.

(g)   Conflicts of Interest

Certain conflicts of interest exist and may continue to exist between the Company and its officers and directors due to the fact that each has other business interests to which they devote their primary attention. Each officer and director may continue to do so notwithstanding the fact that management time should be devoted to the business of the Company.

Certain conflicts of interest may exist between the Company and its management, and conflicts may develop in the future. The Company has not established policies or procedures for the resolution of current or potential conflicts of interest between the Company, its officers and directors or affiliated entities. There can be no assurance that management will resolve all conflicts of interest in favor of the Company, and conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through the exercise by management their best judgment as may be consistent with their fiduciary duties. Management will try to resolve conflicts to the best advantage of all concerned.
 
(h)   Board Meetings; Nominating and Compensation Committees
 
The Board of Directors took a number of actions by written consent of all of the directors during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007. Such actions by the written consent of all directors are, according to Delaware corporate law and the Company’s by-laws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held. The Company's directors and officers do not receive remuneration from the Company unless approved by the Board of Directors or pursuant to an employment contract. No compensation has been paid to the Company's directors for attendance at any meetings during the last fiscal year.

The Company does not have standing nominating or compensation committees, or committees performing similar functions. The Company’s board of directors believes that it is not necessary to have a compensation committee at this time because the functions of such committee are adequately performed by the board of directors. The board of directors also is of the view that it is appropriate for the Company not to have a standing nominating committee because the board of directors has performed and will perform adequately the functions of a nominating committee. The Company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have a compensation committee or a nominating committee.

(i)   Shareholder Communications

There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors. The board of directors does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time because it believes that, given the limited scope of the Company’s operations, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until the Company’s business operations are at a more advanced level. There are no specific, minimum qualifications that the board of directors believes must be met by a candidate recommended by the board of directors. Currently, the entire board of directors decides on nominees, on the recommendation of any member of the board of directors followed by the board’s review of the candidates’ resumes and interview of candidates. Based on the information gathered, the board of directors then makes a decision on whether to recommend the candidates as nominees for director. The Company does not pay any fee to any third party or parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying or evaluating potential nominee.

20

 
The Company does not have any restrictions on shareholder nominations under its certificate of incorporation or by-laws. The only restrictions are those applicable generally under Delaware corporate law and the federal proxy rules, to the extent such rules are or become applicable. The board of directors will consider suggestions from individual shareholders, subject to evaluation of the person's merits. Stockholders may communicate nominee suggestions directly to the board of directors, accompanied by biographical details and a statement of support for the nominees. The suggested nominee must also provide a statement of consent to being considered for nomination. There are no formal criteria for nominees.

Because the management and directors of the Company are the same persons, the Board of Directors has determined not to adopt a formal methodology for communications from shareholders on the belief that any communication would be brought to the board of directors’ attention by virtue of the co-extensive capacities served by Kevin R. Keating.

(j)   Indemnification

Under Delaware corporate law and pursuant to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, the Company may indemnify its officers and directors for various expenses and damages resulting from their acting in these capacities. I nsofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the Company’s officers or directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 6. Executive Compensation
 
(a) Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
The Company currently is a shell company with nominal assets, no employees and no active business operations. The Company’s business plans are to identify an operating company with which to merge or to complete a business combination in a reverse merger transaction. As such, the Company currently has no formal compensation program for its executive officers, directors or employees.
 
The Company is not a "listed company" under SEC rules and is therefore not required to have a compensation committee. Accordingly, the Company has no compensation committee.
 
Except as set forth in the summary compensation table below, during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 and 2007, the Company has not provided any salary, bonus, annual or long-term equity or non-equity based incentive programs, health benefits, life insurance, tax-qualified savings plans, special employee benefits or perquisites, supplemental life insurance benefits, pension or other retirement benefits or any type of nonqualified deferred compensation programs for its executive officers or employees.
 
On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Kevin R. Keating 86,653 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $8,665 for consulting services provided by Mr. Keating. Mr. Keating will not receive any further remuneration until the consummation of a business combination. However, please see Item 7, Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, below for a full discussion of a certain agreement between the Company and Vero Management, L.L.C., a limited liability company for which Mr. Keating is the sole member and manager. Mr. Keating intends to devote very limited time to our affairs.
 
21


It is possible that, after the Company successfully consummates a business combination with an unaffiliated entity, that entity may desire to employ or retain Mr. Keating for the purposes of providing services to the surviving entity. However, the Company has adopted a policy whereby the offer of any post-transaction employment or services to members of management will not be a consideration in our decision whether to undertake any proposed transaction.

No retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance programs or other similar programs are currently in place for the benefit of the Company’s employees.
 
As of October 1, 2005, there were issued and outstanding options to purchase 9,828 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, and there were 140,172 options available for issuance under the 2003 Stock Option Plan. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, the options to purchase 9,828 shares of common stock under the 2003 Stock Option Plan were cancelled. On September 14, 2007, following the closing of the Preferred Stock Purchase, the 2003 Stock Option Plan was terminated by the Company’s Board of Directors, and there are no stock options outstanding as of the date of this filing.
 
There are no understandings or agreements regarding compensation our management will receive after a business combination that is required to be included in this table, or otherwise.
 
(b)   Summary Compensation Table

Item 7. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

On August 22, 2007, the Company entered into a revolving loan agreement with Keating Investments, LLC (“Lender”). Pursuant to this agreement, t he Lender agreed to make advances to the Company from time to time at the request of the Company. The advances outstanding were not to exceed $30,000. The Company was required to repay the outstanding advances in full on or before October 22, 2007. The advances bear interest commencing September 22, 2007 at a rate of 6% per annum. The Lender made advances of $25,000 and $5,000 on August 27, 2007 and September 5, 2007, respectively. The advances were used for working capital purposes and to pay certain accrued liabilities and service providers. On September 19, 2007, these advances were repaid in full from the proceeds of the Preferred Stock Purchase. Keating Investments, LLC is the managing member of KIG Investors. A copy of the Loan Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.10.

On September 14, 2007, the Company issued 86,654 shares of its common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, to Kevin R. Keating, the sole officer and director of the Company, for services rendered to the Company valued at $8,665.

On September 14, 2007, the Company issued 20,000 shares of its common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, to Dennis Depenbusch, a former officer and director of the Company, for consulting services rendered to the Company valued at $2,000.

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 and 2007, a former officer and director of the Company made cost advances on behalf of the Company totaling $5,015. These advances were repaid by the Company from the proceeds of the Preferred Stock Purchase.

Effective October 1, 2007, the Company entered into a management agreement (“Management Agreement”) with Vero Management, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (“Vero”) under which Vero had agreed to provide a broad range of managerial and administrative services to the Company including, but not limited to, assistance in the preparation and maintenance of the Company’s financial books and records, the filing of various reports with the appropriate regulatory agencies as are required by State and Federal rules and regulations, the administration of matters relating to the Company’s shareholders including responding to various information requests from shareholders as well as the preparation and distribution to shareholders of relevant Company materials, and to provide office space, corporate identity, telephone and fax services, mailing, postage and courier services for a fixed fee of $1,000 per month, for an initial period of twelve months.

Except as otherwise indicated herein, there have been no related party transactions, or any other transactions or relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-B.

Item 8. Description of Securities

(a) Common and Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized by its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to issue an aggregate of 210,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 200,000,000 are shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock") and 10,000,000 are shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

On August 27, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors designated 1,600,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). A copy of the Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock was automatically convertible into 16.28982 shares of fully paid and non-assessable common stock upon the Company’s completion of a reverse stock split. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled to vote the number of shares of common stock they were entitled to upon conversion on all matters presented to a vote of the common stockholders.

On September 12, 2007, the Company completed the sale of 1,572,770 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to KIG Investors for a purchase price of $157,277. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”).

On September 25, 2007, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. The Reverse Split provided for the round up of fractional shares and the special treatment of certain shareholders as follows:

a. shareholders holding less than 100 shares of common stock as of the record date will not be affected by the Reverse Split and will hold the same number of shares both before and after the Reverse Split;

b. shareholders holding 1,000 or fewer shares of common stock, but at least 100 shares of common stock as of the record date will hold 100 shares of common stock following the Reverse Split; and

c. all fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Split will be rounded up.

As a result of the Reverse Split, the Series A Preferred Stock held by KIG Investors were automatically converted into 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis. Upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the 1,600,000 shares of Preferred Stock previously designated as Series A Preferred Stock were automatically returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of preferred stock, available for future designation and issuance pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation.

In connection with the Reverse Split, effective September 25, 2007, the Company also amended its certificate of incorporation to reduce the par value of its common stock and preferred stock from $0.01 to $0.0001 per share and to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 200,000,000 shares.

24

 
As of December 3, 2007, after giving effect to the Reverse Split, there were 4,331,131 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding. Except as otherwise noted, all references to shares of the Company’s common stock herein shall refer to the shares of common stock after giving effect to the Reverse Split and the reduction of the par value per share.

Common Stock

All outstanding shares of Common Stock are of the same class and have equal rights and attributes. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. All stockholders are entitled to share equally in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. In the event of liquidation, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities. The stockholders do not have cumulative or preemptive rights.

Preferred Stock

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by its Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock. In the event of issuance, the Preferred Stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our authorized Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.

The description of certain matters relating to the securities of the Company is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to this Form 10-SB.

Registration Rights Granted to the Investor and Laurus

On September 12, 2007, the Company offered certain registration rights to KIG Investors in connection with the Preferred Stock Purchase, pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in that certain registration rights agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4 (the “KIG Registration Rights Agreement”). On September 14, 2007, the Company offered certain registration rights to Laurus in connection with the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock in settlement of certain debt obligations, pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in that certain registration rights agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.9 (“Laurus Registration Rights Agreement”). The terms and conditions of the KIG Registration Rights Agreement and the Laurus Registration Rights Agreement are substantially similar. The KIG Registration Rights Agreement and the Laurus Registration Rights Agreement are referred to herein as the “ Registration Rights Agreements”. The number of shares subject to registration rights for each of the above holders is as follows:

Stockholder
 
Number of Shares Subject to Registration
Rights (on a post-reverse split basis)
 
KIG Investors I, LLC
   
2,562,015
 
Laurus Master Fund, Ltd.
   
1,083,172
 
 
25

 
Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreements, commencing on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date the Company completes a business combination with a private company in a reverse merger or reverse take-over transaction (a “Reverse Merger”), the stockholders shall each have a separate one-time right to request the Company to register for resale the shares of Common Stock held by such persons. The Company is required to cause the registration statement filed as a result of such requests to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep the demand registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) two years after its effective date, (ii) such time as all of the shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement have been publicly sold by the stockholders, or (iii) such time as all of the shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement may be sold by the stockholders pursuant to Rule 144(k). Further, if all of the shares of Common Stock to be included in the registration statement filed cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, and there is not an effective registration statement otherwise covering the shares of Common Stock, then the Company is obligated to prepare and file such registration statement(s) for such number of additional registration statements as may be necessary in order to ensure that all shares of Common Stock are covered by an existing and effective registration statement.

Additionally, the Registration Rights Agreement provides the stockholders with “piggyback” registration rights such that at any time there is not an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock, and the Company files a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company is required to send written notice to the stockholders of such intended filings at least twenty (20) days prior thereto and is required to automatically include in such registration statement all shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders for resale and offer on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415; provided, however, that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company determines for any reason not to proceed with such registration, the Company will be relieved of its obligation to register any shares of Common Stock in connection with such registration, (ii) in case of a determination by the Company to delay registration of its securities, the Company will be permitted to delay the registration of shares of Common Stock for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities, (iii) each stockholder is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to any information gained in this process or any other material non-public information he, she or it obtains, (iv) each stockholder is subject to all applicable laws relating to insider trading or similar restrictions; and (v) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.  

The stockholders shall be entitled to include all shares of Common Stock for resale in the registration statement filed by the Company in connection with a public offering of equity securities by the Company, pursuant to Rule 415, so long as (1) such shares shall not be included as part of the underwritten offering of primary shares by the Company, unless the Company and underwriter agree to allow the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock as part of the underwritten offering and, in such event, the stockholders elect to include the shares of Common Stock in the underwriting subject to an allocation among all stockholders of registration rights in the manner set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, (2) the underwriter approves the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock in such registration statement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all stockholders of registration rights, (3) the stockholders shall enter into the underwriters’ form of lockup agreement as and to the extent requested by the underwriters, which may require that all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders not be sold or otherwise transferred without the consent of the underwriters for a period not to exceed 180 days from the closing of the offering contemplated by the registration statement, and (4) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.
 
26

 
The Registration Rights Agreement contains a cut-back provision, whereby, in the event all of the all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders cannot be included in a registration statement due to certain comments by the SEC or underwriter cutbacks, then the Company, unless otherwise prohibited by the SEC, shall cause the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders to be included in such registration statement to be reduced pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by all holders of registration rights.
 
The registration rights afforded to the stockholders shall terminate on the earliest date when all shares of Common Stock of the stockholders either: (i) have been publicly sold by the stockholders pursuant to a registration statement, (ii) have been covered by an effective registration statement which has been effective for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months (whether or not consecutive), or (iii) may be sold by the stockholders pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected stockholders .
 
Each stockholder shall also indemnify the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against damages arising out of or based upon: (i) such stockholder’s provision of any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact to be contained in any registration statement or prospectus or in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction, or arising out of or relating to any such stockholder’s omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained in such registration statement or prospectus not misleading or (ii) such stockholder’s violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement or (iii) such stockholder’s violation of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Registration Rights Granted to Other Stockholders

On September 14, 2007, the Company offered certain registration rights to the following stockholders of the Company, pursuant to terms and conditions substantially similar to those set forth in the form of registration rights agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.7 (“Other Registration Rights Agreements”).

The Other Registration Rights Agreements provide the stockholders with “piggyback” registration rights such that at any time there is not an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock, and the Company files a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company is required to send written notice to the stockholders of such intended filings at least twenty (20) days prior thereto and is required to automatically include in such registration statement all shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders for resale and offer on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415; provided, however, that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company determines for any reason not to proceed with such registration, the Company will be relieved of its obligation to register any shares of Common Stock in connection with such registration, (ii) in case of a determination by the Company to delay registration of its securities, the Company will be permitted to delay the registration of shares of Common Stock for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities, (iii) each stockholder is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to any information gained in this process or any other material non-public information he, she or it obtains, (iv) each stockholder is subject to all applicable laws relating to insider trading or similar restrictions; and (v) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.

The stockholders shall be entitled to include all shares of Common Stock for resale in the registration statement filed by the Company in connection with a public offering of equity securities by the Company, pursuant to Rule 415, so long as (1) such shares shall not be included as part of the underwritten offering of primary shares by the Company, unless the Company and underwriter agree to allow the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock as part of the underwritten offering and, in such event, the stockholders elect to include the shares of Common Stock in the underwriting subject to an allocation among all stockholders of registration rights in the manner set forth in the Other Registration Rights Agreements, (2) the underwriter approves the inclusion of such shares of Common Stock in such registration statement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all stockholders of registration rights, (3) the stockholders shall enter into the underwriters’ form of lockup agreement as and to the extent requested by the underwriters, which may require that all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders not be sold or otherwise transferred without the consent of the underwriters for a period not to exceed 180 days from the closing of the offering contemplated by the registration statement, and (4) if all of the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders cannot be so included due to certain comments from the SEC, then the Company may reduce the number of each stockholders’ shares of Common Stock covered by such registration statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.
 
The Other Registration Rights Agreements contain a cut-back provision, whereby, in the event all of the all of the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders cannot be included in a registration statement due to certain comments by the SEC or underwriter cutbacks, then the Company, unless otherwise prohibited by the SEC, shall cause the shares of Common Stock of the stockholders to be included in such registration statement to be reduced pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by all holders of registration rights.
 
The registration rights afforded to the stockholders shall terminate on the earliest date when all shares of Common Stock of the stockholders either: (i) have been publicly sold by the stockholders pursuant to a registration statement, (ii) have been covered by an effective registration statement which has been effective for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months (whether or not consecutive), or (iii) may be sold by the stockholders pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected stockholders .
 
Each stockholder shall also indemnify the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against damages arising out of or based upon: (i) such stockholder’s provision of any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact to be contained in any registration statement or prospectus or in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction, or arising out of or relating to any such stockholder’s omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained in such registration statement or prospectus not misleading or (ii) such stockholder’s violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement or (iii) such stockholder’s violation of the Other Registration Rights Agreement.

PART II

Item 1. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

(a) Market Information

Our Common Stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board on June 28, 2004. Our common stock was quoted on the National Quotation Bureau’s Over-the-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol “CYSL” through December 27, 2005, when we filed a Form 15 application with the SEC. Since that time we have traded on the Pink Sheets under the symbol “CYSL”. Effective September 25, 2007, our symbol of the Pink Sheets was changed to “CYSU” in connection with the Reverse Split.

The table below sets forth the reported high and low bid prices for the periods indicated. The bid prices shown reflect quotations between dealers, without adjustment for markups, markdowns or commissions, and may not represent actual transactions in our securities. All prices have been adjusted retroactively to give effect to the Reverse Split.

(b) Holders

As of September 30, 2007, there were 85 record holders of our common stock and approximately 30 beneficial holders who held our common stock in street name.

(c) Dividends

The Company has not paid any cash dividends to date and does not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. It is the present intention of management to utilize all available funds for the development of the Company's business.

(d) Penny Stock Regulations

Our securities are subject to the SEC's “penny stock” rules. The penny stock rules may affect the ability of owners of our shares to sell them. There may be a limited market for penny stocks due to the regulatory burdens on broker-dealers. The market among dealers may not be active. Investments in penny stocks often are unable to sell stock back to the dealer that sold them the stock. The mark-ups or commissions charged by the broker-dealers might be greater than any profit an investor may make. Because of large spreads that market makers quote, investors may be unable to sell the stock immediately back to the dealer at the same price the dealer sold the stock to the investor.
 
30

 
Our securities are also subject to the SEC’s rule that imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers that sell such securities to other than established customers or accredited investors. For purposes of the rule, the phrase “accredited investor” means, in general terms, institutions with assets exceeding $5,000,000 or individuals having net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or having an annual income that exceeds $200,000 (or that, combined with a spouse’s income, exceeds $300,000). For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of purchasers of our securities to buy or sell in any market.

Item 2. Legal Proceedings

Presently, there are not any material pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or as to which any of its property is subject, and no such proceedings are known to the Company to be threatened or contemplated against it.

Item 3. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants

On October 18, 2007, the Company dismissed Hein & Associates, LLP at its accountants. There were no disagreements with Hein & Associates, LLP, whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Hein & Associates, LLP, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its audit report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005. A copy of Hein’s letter to the Company dated as of October 18, 2007 is attached hereto as Exhibit 16.

On October 18, 2007, the Company engaged Comiskey & Company, P.C. as its accountants for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 and 2007. There are not and have not been any disagreements between the Company and Comiskey & Company. P.C., whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Comiskey & Company, P.C, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its audit report for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 and 2007.

Item 4. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

On September 12, 2007, the Company completed the sale of 1,572,770 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to KIG Investors for a purchase price of $157,277. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were automatically convertible into the Company’s common stock at such time as the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”). On September 25, 2007, the Company completed a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. As a result of the Reverse Split, the Series A Preferred Stock held by KIG Investors were automatically converted into 2,562,015 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis.

On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Feldman Weinstein & Smith, LLP (“FWS”), former legal counsel to the Company, and Halliburton Investor Relations (“HIR”), the Company’s former investor relation firm, an aggregate of 71,086 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $7,109 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of accrued liabilities totaling $73,260, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $66,151 being recorded.
 
On September 14, 2007, the Company also entered into an agreement with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”), the Company’s secured creditor, for the issuance of common stock in complete settlement of amounts owed to it for certain loans and accrued interest. Pursuant to this equity settlement, the Company issued 1,083,172 shares of common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $108,317 or approximately $0.10 per share, in satisfaction of principal under notes of $820,024 and accrued interest of $121,095, resulting in income from discharge of indebtedness of $832,802 being recorded.
 
31

 
On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Dennis Depenbusch 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $2,000 for consulting services provided by Mr. Depenbusch in connection with the reorganization described in Part I, Item 1(b) above.
 
On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Kevin R. Keating 86,654 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $8,665 for consulting services provided by Mr. Keating.

On September 14, 2007, the Company issued Garisch Financial, Inc. 86,654 shares of the Company’s common stock, on a post-reverse split basis, valued at $8,665 for consulting services provided by Garisch Financial, Inc. A copy of the Consulting Agreement between Garisch Financial, Inc. and the Company is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.11.

In consideration of the above stock issuances, the Company granted certain registration rights to the holders thereof. See Part I, Item 8(a) for a discussion of the registration rights granted in connection with the above stock issuances.
 
In connection with the above stock issuance, we did not pay any underwriting discounts or commissions. None of the sales of securities described or referred to above was registered under the Securities Act. Each of the purchasers fell into one or more of the categories that follow: an existing shareholder, a creditor, a current or former officer or director, a service provider, or an accredited investor with whom we or an affiliate of ours had a prior business relationship. As a result, no general solicitation or advertising was used in connection with the sales. In making the sales without registration under the Securities Act, we relied upon one or more of the exemptions from registration including those contained in Sections 4(2) of the Securities Act. The purchasers represented in writing that they acquired the securities for their own accounts. A legend was placed on the stock certificates stating that the securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be sold or otherwise transferred without an effective registration or an exemption therefrom.

Item 5. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that it will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time, each person that such section grants us the power to indemnify.
 
The Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:
 
• any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;
 
32

 
• acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
• payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or
• any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
        The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of our directors will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Any repeal or modification of this provision will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation, right or protection of a director of our company existing at the time of such repeal or modification.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Shareholders
Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc.
Vero Beach, Florida

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. as of September 30, 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. as of September 30, 2007 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Organization and Basis of Presentation :
 
Organization and Business
 
Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. (“Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 7, 2001. On August 27, 2003, the Company completed the reverse acquisition of Whitco Company, L.P. (“Whitco”). Whitco was a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and was engaged in the manufacture and sale of area lighting poles to distributors throughout the United States of America.

The Company’s common stock was quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol CYSL through December 27, 2005, when it filed a Form 15 application with the SEC to withdrawal as a reporting company under U.S. securities laws. Since that time, the Company’s common stock has traded on the Pink Sheets under the symbol CYSL.

On March 15, 2006, Whitco voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. On April 25, 2006, the bankruptcy court approved a sale of Whitco’s assets (other than cash and accounts receivable) used in its area lighting pole business. The assets were sold free and clear of any liens and encumbrances to a third party purchaser pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S Bankruptcy Code. The purchaser issued a common stock purchase warrant to acquire shares of the purchaser’s common stock as consideration for the assets purchased (“Purchase Warrant”). See Note 3.

On May 16, 2006, Whitco filed a motion to convert its bankruptcy case to a Chapter 7 liquidation proceeding. This motion was granted by the bankruptcy court on July 13, 2006. In connection with the liquidation, the Purchase Warrant and Whitco’s cash and accounts receivable were assigned and distributed to Whitco’s secured creditor. As part of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings, no assets were available for distribution to unsecured creditors and, accordingly, these unsatisfied obligations were relieved as part of the liquidation in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 7 of U.S. bankruptcy laws. See Note 5.

Since Whitco’s liquidation in bankruptcy, the Company has had nominal assets and nominal business operations and its business strategy has been to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation. In furtherance of this business strategy, on July 25, 2006, the Company voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. The Company subsequently determined to withdraw from bankruptcy court protection and, on motion made by the U.S. trustee, the bankruptcy court ordered the case dismissed on January 9, 2007. Since the dismissal of the Company’s bankruptcy case, the Company has settled its outstanding liabilities with creditors and is now in a position to actively seek a target company (see Notes 4 and 5). In addition, effective February 22, 2007, the Company experienced a change in control and its management changed, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and KIG Investors I, LLC (“Investor”)(see Note 4).

CATALYST LIGHTING GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. The Company will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company. The operations of Whitco, prior to the disposition of Whitco’s assets, are excluded from continuing operations.

Going Concern
Since inception, the Company and its former subsidiary have a cumulative net loss of $4,083,086. Since inception, the Company has also been dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its operations. The Company currently has no source of operating revenue, and has only limited working capital with which to pursue its business plan, which contemplates the completion of a business combination with an operating company. The amount of capital required to sustain operations until the successful completion of a business combination is subject to future events and uncertainties. It may be necessary for the Company to secure additional working capital through loans or sales of common stock, and there can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying financial statements have been presented on the basis of the continuation of the Company as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
2.
Summary of Accounting Policies :
 
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes , which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Use of Estimates
In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

CATALYST LIGHTING GROUP, INC.
 
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at September 30, 2007.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Stock Compensation for Services Rendered  
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services." All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty's performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.

Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings per (loss) share (EPS) is calculated by dividing the income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Potentially dilutive securities for the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2007 would have been anti-dilutive for EPS calculations and therefore are not included.

Disposed Operations
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS No. 144 modifies previous disclosures and requires additional disclosures for discontinued operations and the assets associated with discontinued operations. In connection with the bankruptcy sale of Whitco’s assets and Whitco’s subsequent liquidation in bankruptcy, the Company disposed of its existing area lighting pole business (see Note 3). The operations of Whitco, prior to the disposition of Whitco’s assets, are excluded from continuing operations.

Recent Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”).  The purpose of SFAS 157 is to provide users of financial statements with better information about the extent to which fair value is used to measure recognized assets and liabilities, the inputs used to develop the measurements, and the effect of certain of the measurements on earnings for the period. SFAS No. 157 also provides guidance on the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. This changes the definition of fair value to be the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, an exit price, as opposed to the price that would be paid to acquire the asset or received to assume the liability, an entry price.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods with those fiscal years (e.g., January 1, 2008, for calendar year-end entities).

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“FAS 159”). FAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of FAS 159 will become effective as of the beginning of our 2009 fiscal year.

The adoption of these new Statements is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Sale of Subsidiary’s Assets in Bankruptcy :
 
On March 15, 2006, Whitco, the Company’s wholly owned operating subsidiary, voluntarily filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy laws. On April 25, 2006, the bankruptcy court approved a sale of Whitco’s assets (other than cash and accounts receivable) used in its area lighting pole business. The assets were sold free and clear of any liens and encumbrances to a third party purchaser pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S Bankruptcy Code. The purchaser issued the Purchase Warrant as consideration for the assets purchased. The Purchase Warrant was valued by the parties to the transaction at $1,500,000.
 
On May 16, 2006, Whitco filed a motion to convert its bankruptcy case to a Chapter 7 liquidation proceeding. This motion was granted by the bankruptcy court on July 13, 2006. In connection with the liquidation, the Purchase Warrant and Whitco’s cash and accounts receivable were assigned and distributed to Whitco’s secured creditor (see Note 5). As part of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings, no assets were available for distribution to unsecured creditors and, accordingly, these unsatisfied obligations were relieved as part of the liquidation in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 7 of U.S. bankruptcy laws.

Preferred Stock
On August 27, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors designated 1,600,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Each share of Preferred Stock was automatically convertible into 16.28982 shares of fully paid and non-assessable common stock upon the Company’s completion of a reverse stock split. The holders of Preferred Stock were entitled to vote the number of shares of common stock they were entitled to upon conversion on all matters presented to a vote of the common stockholders.

On August 22, 2007, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with the Investor pursuant to which the Investor purchased 1,572,770 shares of Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $157,277 (“Preferred Stock Purchase”).

c. all fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Split will be rounded up.

In connection with the Reverse Split, effective September 25, 2007, the Company also amended its certificate of incorporation to reduce the par value of its common stock and preferred stock from $0.01 to $0.0001 per share and to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 40,000,000 to 200,000,000 shares.

As of September 30, 2007, after giving effect to the Reverse Split, there were 4,331,131 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding. Except as otherwise noted, all references to shares of the Company’s common stock shall refer to the shares of common stock after giving effect to the Reverse Split and the reduction of the par value per share.

At September 30, 2007, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $6.8 million available to offset future taxable income through 2027. This operating loss is limited under the change of control provisions of Section 382.

Prior net operating loss carry forwards were reduced effective April 24, 2006 principally as a result of cancellation of debt in the Chapter 11 proceedings.

A valuation allowance of $2,455,000 was established at September 30, 2007 to offset the benefit from the net operating loss carryforward to the extent it is more likely than not, based upon available evidence, that the recorded value will not be realized. Realization is dependent on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. In August 2007, upon the issuance of common shares in settlement of liabilities, the Company underwent a change of control pursuant to Section 382 of the internal revenue code. Net operating losses prior to the change of control are limited in post change periods under Section 382. Cancellation of indebtedness income subsequent to the change in control has been excluded from taxable income due to the insolvency of the company, and has the effect of reducing the pre-change net operating loss carryforward.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
 
THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) is made as of this 12th day of September, 2007, by and among Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), and KIG Investors I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ Holder ”).
 
A.   The Company has issued a total of 1,572,770 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“ Preferred Shares ”) to the Holder for a purchase price of $157,277.
 
B.   The Preferred Shares are convertible into 25,620,147 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”).
 
C.   As partial consideration for the Holder’s purchase of the Preferred Shares, the Company agreed to grant to the Holder the registration rights set forth herein.
 
D.   Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in Section 11 hereof.
 
NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the above premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Holder hereby agree as follows:
 
1.   Registration .
 
(a)   Demand Registration Rights . C ommencing on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date the Company completes a business combination with a private company in a reverse merger or reverse take-over transaction (“ Reverse Merger ”), the Holder shall have a separate one-time right, by written notice to the Company, signed by the Holder (" Demand Notice "), to request the Company to register for resale all of the Registrable Securities included by the Holder in the Demand Notice (“ Demand Registration Right ”) under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 by filing with the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of such Registrable Securities (" Demand Registration Statement ").  The Demand Registration Statement required hereunder shall be filed on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then such Registration Statement will be on Form S-1, Form SB-2, or such other appropriate form) by the applicable Filing Date. The Demand Registration Statement required hereunder shall contain the Plan of Distribution, attached hereto as Exhibit A (which may be modified to respond to comments, if any, received by the Commission).  The Company shall cause the Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep the Demand Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) two years after its Effective Date, (ii) such time as all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been publicly sold by the Holder, or (iii) such time as all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold by the Holder pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected Holder (" Effectiveness Period ”). By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the business day immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule).
 
 
 

 
 
(b)   Restrictions on Demand Registration . The Company may postpone for up to thirty (30) days the filing or the effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement if the Company reasonably determines that such Demand Registration Statement would have a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer, reorganization or similar transaction; provided, however, that in such event, the Holder shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such request for demand registration shall not count as a request for demand registration under Section 1(a) above and the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration. The Company may delay the filing or effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement hereunder only once in any twelve-month period.
 
(c)   Continuing Demand Registration Rights . If all of the Registrable Securities to be included in the Demand Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 1(a) cannot be so included due to Commission Comments, and there is not an effective Registration Statement otherwise covering the Registrable Securities, then the Company shall prepare and file by the applicable Filing Date for such Registration Statement(s), such number of additional Registration Statements as may be necessary in order to ensure that all Registrable Securities are covered by an existing and effective Registration Statement. Accordingly, for example, if shares included in an initial Registration Statement filed under Section 1(a) are removed from such Registration Statement filed under Section 1(a) due to Commission Comments and Commission Comments again require shares to be removed for such newly filed Registration Statement under this Section 1(c), then the Company will prepare and file additional Registration Statements until such time as all such required shares are covered by effective Registration Statements. Any Registration Statements to be filed under this Section shall be for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415, on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then such Registration Statement will be on Form S-1, Form SB-2, or such other appropriate form). Such Registration Statements shall contain (except if otherwise required pursuant to written comments received from the Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement) the "Plan of Distribution" attached hereto as Exhibit A . The Company shall cause such Registration Statements to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep such Registration Statements continuously effective under the Securities Act during the Effectiveness Period. By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the business day immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule).
 
(d)   Piggyback Registrations Rights . At any time there is not an effective Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to the Holder a written notice of such determination at least twenty (20) days prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement and shall automatically include in such Registration Statement all Registrable Securities for resale and offer on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415; provided, however, that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company determines for any reason not to proceed with such registration, the Company will be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration, (ii) in case of a determination by the Company to delay registration of its securities, the Company will be permitted to delay the registration of Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities, (iii) each Holder is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to any information gained in this process or any other material non-public information he, she or it obtains, (iv) each Holder is subject to all applicable laws relating to insider trading or similar restrictions; and (v) if all of the Registrable Securities of the Holder cannot be so included due to Commission Comments, then the Company may reduce the number of the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.   The Holder shall be entitled to include all Registrable Securities for resale in the Registration Statement filed by the Company in connection with a public offering of equity securities by the Company after the date of this Agreement (the “ Initial Registration Statement ”), pursuant to Rule 415, so long as (1) such shares shall not be included as part of the underwritten offering of primary shares by the Company, unless the Company and underwriter agree to allow the inclusion of such Registrable Shares as part of the underwritten offering and, in such event, the Holder elects to include the Registrable Securities in the underwriting subject to an allocation among all holders of registration rights in the manner set forth in Section 1(e) hereof, (2) the underwriter approves the inclusion of such Registrable Securities in such Initial Registration Statement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights, (3) the Holder shall enter into the underwriters’ form of lockup agreement as and to the extent requested by the underwriters, which may require that all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holder not be sold or otherwise transferred without the consent of the underwriters for a period not to exceed 180 days from the closing of the offering contemplated by the Initial Registration Statement, and (4) if all of the Registrable Securities of the Holder cannot be so included due to Commission Comments, then the Company may reduce the number of the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415. The Company shall cause any Registration Statement filed under this Section 1(d) to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act during the Effectiveness Period. By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the business day immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule).

(e)   Cutback Provisions . In the event all of the Registrable Securities of the Holder cannot be included in a Registration Statement under Sections 1(a), 1(c) or 1(d) hereof due to Commission Comments or underwriter cutbacks, then the Company, unless otherwise prohibited by the Commission, shall cause the Registrable Securities of the Holder to be included in such Registration Statement to be reduced pro rata based on the number of registrable securities held by all holders of registration rights as of the date immediately preceding the Reverse Merger.
 
(f)   Termination of Registration Rights . The registration rights afforded to the Holder under this Section 1 shall terminate on the earliest date when all Registrable Securities of the Holder either: (i) have been publicly sold by the Holder pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) have been covered by an effective Registration Statement which has been effective for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months (whether or not consecutive), or (iii) may be sold by the Holder pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected Holder.

2.   Registration Procedures . Whenever any Registrable Securities are to be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall have the following obligations:
 
(a)   The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective.
 
(b)   The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, which Prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Effectiveness Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-QSB, Form 10-KSB or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act, the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the Commission on the same day on which the Securities Exchange Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement.
 
(c)   The Company shall furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement, without charge, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the Commission at least one copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by such seller, all exhibits and each preliminary Prospectus, (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, ten (10) copies of the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as such seller may reasonably request) and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final Prospectus, as such seller may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller.
 
(d)   The Company shall use its best efforts to (i) register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by any seller of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of all applicable jurisdictions in the United States, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Effectiveness Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Effectiveness Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 2(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
 
(e)   The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Holder of any Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

(f)   The Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, as a result of which the Prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, nonpublic information), and, subject to Section 2(r), promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to the Holder (or such other number of copies as the Holder may reasonably request).
 
(g)   The Company shall promptly notify the Holder in writing (i) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to the Holder by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company's reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate.
 
(h)   If the Holder is required under applicable securities laws to be described in a Registration Statement as an underwriter, at the reasonable request of such Holder, the Company shall furnish to such Holder, on the date of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as the Holder may reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company's independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Holder, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Holder.
 
(i)   If the Holder is required under applicable securities laws to be described in a Registration Statement as an underwriter, then at the request of such Holder in connection with such Holder's due diligence requirements, the Company shall make available for inspection by (i) the Holder, (ii) the Holder’s legal counsel, and (iii) one firm of accountants or other agents retained by the Holder (collectively, the " Inspectors "), all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the " Records "), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to the Holder) or use of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (b) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement of which the Inspector has knowledge. Each Holder agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. Nothing herein (or in any other confidentiality agreement between the Company and the Holder) shall be deemed to limit the Holder's ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.

The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning the Holder is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to the Holder and allow the Holder, at the Holder’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.
 
(k) The Company shall use its best efforts either to (i) cause all of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement on The NASDAQ Global Market, The NASDAQ Capital Market or the American Stock Exchange, or (iii) if, despite the Company's best efforts to satisfy, the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), to secure the inclusion for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board for such Registrable Securities and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to use its best efforts to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (" NASD ") as such with respect to such Registrable Securities. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section 2(k).
 
(l) The Company shall cooperate with the Holder who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, as the Holder may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Holder may request.
 
(m) If requested by the Holder, the Company shall (i) as soon as practicable incorporate in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the Holder reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) as soon as practicable make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) as soon as practicable, supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement if reasonably requested by the Holder holding any Registrable Securities.
 
(n) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

(o) The Company shall make generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with, and in the manner provided by, the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act) covering a twelve-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company's fiscal quarter next following the effective date of a Registration Statement.
 
(p) The Company shall otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission in connection with any registration hereunder.
 
(q) Within two (2) business days after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C .
 
(r) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time after the Effective Date of a Registration Statement, the Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company and its counsel, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a " Grace Period "); provided, that the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Holder in writing of the existence of material, non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each notice the Company will not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to the Holder) and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) notify the Holder in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; and, provided further, that no Grace Period shall exceed five (5) consecutive days and during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of twenty (20) days and the first day of any Grace Period must be at least five (5) trading days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (each, an " Allowable Grace Period "). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Holder receives the notice referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Holder receives the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 2(e) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by Section 2(f) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of the Holder in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the Prospectus included as part of the applicable Registration Statement (unless an exemption from such Prospectus delivery requirements exists), prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Holder has not yet settled.
 
3.   Obligations of the Holders .
 
(a)   At least five (5) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the information the Company requires from the Holder if the Holder’s Registrable Securities are to be included in such Registration Statement. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of the Holder that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.
 
 
7

 
 
(b)   The Holder, by the Holder’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder, unless the Holder has notified the Company in writing of the Holder's election to exclude all of the Holder’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.
 
(c)   The Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 2(e) or 2(f), the Holder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until the Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Sections 2(e) or 2(f) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of the Holder in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Holder’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Sections 2(e) or 2(f) and for which the Holder has not yet settled.
 
(d)   The Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the Prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it or an exemption therefrom in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.

5.   Indemnification .
 
In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:
 
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Holder, the directors, officers, members, partners, employees, agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls the Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act (each, an " Indemnified Person "), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, reasonable attorneys' fees, amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several, (collectively, " Claims ") incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the Commission, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (" Indemnified Damages "), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (" Blue Sky Filing "), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary Prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final Prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the Commission) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or (iv) any violation of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being, collectively, " Violations "). Subject to Section 5(c), the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 5(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person for such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such Prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 2(c) and (ii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of the Holder to deliver or to cause to be delivered the Prospectus made available by the Company, including a corrected Prospectus, if such Prospectus or corrected Prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 2(c); and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which the Holder is participating, the Holder agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act (each, an " Indemnified Party "), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Holder expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 5(c), the Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 6 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, further, however, that the Holder shall be liable under this Section 5(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to the Holder as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 5 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 5, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of not more than one counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Party. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 5, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
 
(d) The indemnification required by this Section 5 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.
 
(e)   The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.
 
6.   Contribution . To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 5 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement

Exhibit A
 
Plan of Distribution
 
The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;
 
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a
portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
 
·
privately negotiated transactions;
 
 
·
to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the
Commission;
 
 
·
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a
stipulated price per share;
 
 
·
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
 
 
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
 
Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
 
 
17

 
 
The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of the securities will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder's business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
 
The Company has advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.
 
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

(e)   The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify the Holder of any Registrable Securities being sold of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

Exhibit A
 
Plan of Distribution
 
The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a
portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
   
· 
privately negotiated transactions;
 
·
to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;
 
·
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
   
·
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
   
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
 
Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.

The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of the securities will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder's business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
 
The Company has advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.
 
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

The Shares to be issued to Laurus hereunder will be issued at the closing of the Purchase Agreement.

Without the prior written consent of Laurus, Catalyst shall not issue any securities if, as a result of such issuance, the Shares issued to Laurus under this Section 3 will represent less than 25% of the outstanding shares of Catalyst’s common stock on a fully diluted basis; provided, however, that this restriction and limitation on the issuance of securities by Catalyst shall not apply to the issuance of Catalyst’s securities in connection with the Reverse Merger or any capital raise being conducted as part of the Reverse Merger. The provisions of this paragraph shall terminate and be of no full force and effect immediately following the closing of the Reverse Merger.

Catalyst has disclosed to Laurus its intention to take such actions as are necessary to effect a one-for-ten reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”) following the closing of the transactions contemplated hereunder, and Laurus hereby agrees and consents to such Reverse Split.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
 
THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) is made as of this 14 th day of September, 2007, by and among Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), and Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands company (“ Holder ”).
 
A.   The Company has issued a total of 10,831,718 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (“ Shares ”) to the Holder in connection with that certain Settlement and Release Agreement dated August 22, 2007 (“ Settlement Agreement ”).
 
B.   As partial consideration for the issuance of Shares to the Holder, the Company agreed to grant to the Holder the registration rights set forth herein.
 
C.   Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in Section 11 hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE , in consideration of the above premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Holder hereby agree as follows:
 
1.   Registration .
 
(a)   Demand Registration Rights . C ommencing on the date that is thirty (30) days after the date the Company completes a business combination with a private company in a reverse merger or reverse take-over transaction (“ Reverse Merger ”), the Holder shall have a separate one-time right, by written notice to the Company, signed by the Holder (" Demand Notice "), to request the Company to register for resale all of the Registrable Securities included by the Holder in the Demand Notice (“ Demand Registration Right ”) under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 by filing with the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of such Registrable Securities (" Demand Registration Statement ").  The Demand Registration Statement required hereunder shall be filed on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then such Registration Statement will be on Form S-1, Form SB-2, or such other appropriate form) by the applicable Filing Date. The Demand Registration Statement required hereunder shall contain the Plan of Distribution, attached hereto as Exhibit A (which may be modified to respond to comments, if any, received by the Commission).  The Company shall cause the Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep the Demand Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of (i) two years after its Effective Date, (ii) such time as all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been publicly sold by the Holder, or (iii) such time as all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold by the Holder pursuant to Rule 144(k), or Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations for sales as provided in that regulation, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company's transfer agent and the affected Holder (" Effectiveness Period ”). By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the business day immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule).
 

 
(b)   Restrictions on Demand Registration . The Company may postpone for up to thirty (30) days the filing or the effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement if the Company reasonably determines that such Demand Registration Statement would have a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer, reorganization or similar transaction; provided, however, that in such event, the Holder shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such request for demand registration shall not count as a request for demand registration under Section 1(a) above and the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration. The Company may delay the filing or effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement hereunder only once in any twelve-month period.
 
(c)   Continuing Demand Registration Rights . If all of the Registrable Securities to be included in the Demand Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 1(a) cannot be so included due to Commission Comments, and there is not an effective Registration Statement otherwise covering the Registrable Securities, then the Company shall prepare and file by the applicable Filing Date for such Registration Statement(s), such number of additional Registration Statements as may be necessary in order to ensure that all Registrable Securities are covered by an existing and effective Registration Statement. Accordingly, for example, if shares included in an initial Registration Statement filed under Section 1(a) are removed from such Registration Statement filed under Section 1(a) due to Commission Comments and Commission Comments again require shares to be removed for such newly filed Registration Statement under this Section 1(c), then the Company will prepare and file additional Registration Statements until such time as all such required shares are covered by effective Registration Statements. Any Registration Statements to be filed under this Section shall be for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415, on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then such Registration Statement will be on Form S-1, Form SB-2, or such other appropriate form). Such Registration Statements shall contain (except if otherwise required pursuant to written comments received from the Commission upon a review of such Registration Statement) the "Plan of Distribution" attached hereto as Exhibit A . The Company shall cause such Registration Statements to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep such Registration Statements continuously effective under the Securities Act during the Effectiveness Period. By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the business day immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule).
 
(d)   Piggyback Registrations Rights . At any time there is not an effective Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to the Holder a written notice of such determination at least twenty (20) days prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement and shall automatically include in such Registration Statement all Registrable Securities for resale and offer on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415; provided, however, that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company determines for any reason not to proceed with such registration, the Company will be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration, (ii) in case of a determination by the Company to delay registration of its securities, the Company will be permitted to delay the registration of Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities, (iii) each Holder is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to any information gained in this process or any other material non-public information he, she or it obtains, (iv) each Holder is subject to all applicable laws relating to insider trading or similar restrictions; and (v) if all of the Registrable Securities of the Holder cannot be so included due to Commission Comments, then the Company may reduce the number of the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415.   The Holder shall be entitled to include all Registrable Securities for resale in the Registration Statement filed by the Company in connection with a public offering of equity securities by the Company after the date of this Agreement (the “ Initial Registration Statement ”), pursuant to Rule 415, so long as (1) such shares shall not be included as part of the underwritten offering of primary shares by the Company, unless the Company and underwriter agree to allow the inclusion of such Registrable Shares as part of the underwritten offering and, in such event, the Holder elects to include the Registrable Securities in the underwriting subject to an allocation among all holders of registration rights in the manner set forth in Section 1(e) hereof, (2) the underwriter approves the inclusion of such Registrable Securities in such Initial Registration Statement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights, (3) the Holder shall enter into the underwriters’ form of lockup agreement as and to the extent requested by the underwriters, which may require that all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holder not be sold or otherwise transferred without the consent of the underwriters for a period not to exceed 180 days from the closing of the offering contemplated by the Initial Registration Statement, and (4) if all of the Registrable Securities of the Holder cannot be so included due to Commission Comments, then the Company may reduce the number of the Holder’s Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to the maximum number which would enable the Company to conduct such offering in accordance with the provisions of Rule 415. The Company shall cause any Registration Statement filed under this Section 1(d) to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and shall keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act during the Effectiveness Period. By 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the business day immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final Prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement (whether or not such filing is technically required under such Rule).

The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Party. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section 5, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

Exhibit A
 
Plan of Distribution
 
The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
·
 
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;
 
·
 
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
·
 
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
·
 
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
·
 
privately negotiated transactions;
 
·
 
to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;
 
·
 
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
·
 
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
 
·
 
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
 
Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
 
17

 
The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
 
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of the securities will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder's business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
 
The Company has advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.
 
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Dear Mr. Keating:

This confirms that Catalyst Lighting Group, Inc. (“Catalyst”) has dismissed Hein & Associates, LLP (“Hein”) as its independent accountants effective as of October 18, 2007.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, our accountants’ report on the financial statements contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it modified as to audit scope or accounting principles. The accountants’ report contained an explanatory paragraph describing going concern contingencies.

We further acknowledge that there were no disagreements with Hein, whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Hein, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its audit report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005.


Very truly yours,

/s/ Hein & Associates, LLP

Hein & Associates, LLP
